which leads to hazardous to the society. Pollution from land based activities includes spilling from sewage effluents from a variety of industries. Most of the rivers which discharge large quantities of water in to the coastal marine environment has long been used as a site for the disposal of waste. The coastal areas are affected by the discharge of sewage generated by the habitations located nearby also.
Providing clean and safe water is the major challenge with the increasing industrialization and globalization [16] .An understanding of water chemistry is the bases of the knowledge of multi dimensional aspect of aquatic environment chemistry. The quality of water is of vital concern for the mankind [12]. Water quality refers to the chemical, physical and biological and radiological characteristics of water.

resist the changes that may occur before analysis. The samples were collected during the month of January 2018. Physic chemical analysis The samples collected were analyzed for important parameters such as pH, Electrical conductivity, The Total dissolved solids, Total hardness, Chloride, Sulfate, and Alkalinity. pH` and Conductivity was directly determined by using digital pconductivity meter. Titrimetric method was used for the determination of alkalinity and gravimetric method for Total dissolved solid and Total suspended solids. Chloride was estimated by Mohr’s method. Sulfate was estimated using Gravimetric method. Total hardness was determined by EDTA titrimetric method.

Total hardness Hardness is due to the presence of Calcium, Magnesium, Chloride and sulfate ions. The mdesirable limit is 300-600 ppm (WHO). Total hardness of 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 sample values were in the permissible limit. Sample 1, 2 3, and 10 were within the maximum desirable limit. Sample 9 were higher than all Standards. Hardness leadsirritation and poor lathering with soap. Sulfate Sulfate can be found in almost all natural water. It is one of the major dissolved components of rain. High concentration of sulfate in us can have laxative effect. Sulfate gives a bitter or medicinal taste to water. High concentration of sulfate can experience a Dehydration and Diarrhea. Sulfate values of sample 2, 4, 5, 6,8and 10 values were near in the permissible limit according to all standards. Sample 1, 3, 7, 9 sulfate value were higher in all standards. Chloride Chloride is an essential electrolyte located in all body fluids responsible for maintaining acid/base balance, transmitting nerve impulses and regulating fluid in and out of cells. Although chlorides are harmless low level. EPA recommends no higher than 250 ppm. At level greater than this sodium chloride can complicate existing heart problems and contribute high blood pressure when ingested in excess. 2, 6, 8 chloride values were higher than in EPA Standard. Dissolved Carbon dioxide Natural water contains Dissolved Carbon di oxide. The Dissolved Carbon dioxide is often contributor to the acidity leads to corrosion. In the present study, The Dissolved CO2 of all samples was higher than all Standards. CONCLUSION The Physico Chemical assessment of bore water samples in selected Muthupet areas of Thiruvarur District Tamil Nadu, investigated results shows that sample 2, 4, 5, and 7 only were used for drpurpose. Sample 1, 3, 6, 8, 9.and 10 was nodrinking purpose. This study was to provide information useful for necessary premethods such as Reverse Osmosis, Distillation and Deionization by Ion exchange be used before using the water from bore well for Human Consumption.
